The Communist Republicans of New Zendo is a massive, genial nation, ruled by Sam Jenkins with an iron fist, and renowned for its public floggings, strictly enforced bedtime, and ritual sacrifices. The compassionate, hard-working, cynical population of 2.831 billion Zendonians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Port International. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 39.0%.

The all-consuming Zendonian economy, worth 283 trillion Zens a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 100,002 Zens, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Judicial robes are the country's hottest fashion trend, human sacrifice to the metaphorical altar of Mammon ensures national prosperity, kilts and cassocks are viewed with suspicion, and science centers and state of the art laboratories are ubiquitous. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. New Zendo's national animal is the Saltwater Zendonian Turretfish, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Christianity.

New Zendo is ranked 54,787^th in the world and 12^th in Bresima for Lowest Crime Rates, with 72.94 law-abiding acts per hour.
